We get to make rent if we pick up OT


grav0p1

what’s an incentive


SleazetheSteez

I'd accept a bullet through my skull...in roblox


countrycityboyemt

0....and $0 extra paid. Actually, they have been limiting our hours to avoid paying OT.


BIGBOYDADUDNDJDNDBD

We used to get double time for every shift picked up. Now we’re fully staffed and get nothing


pygmybluewhale

That’s frustrating unless you have people willing to. I can’t stand the guilt tripping/ mandatory call ins. Like leave your family to come to work, your loyalty lies with us, not your family.


zion1886

I’ve found that you can end most guilt trips with “yeah I don’t actually care” or “sounds like a you problem, idgaf”. If I worked somewhere that did mandatories, I’d make sure they were receiving at least one attitude complaint for every hour I was on shift. They’ll either avoid mandatory-ing me ever again or fire me. At which point I’ll take my happy ass to a service that doesn’t mandatory people. Alternatively if you aren’t actively getting off shift, tell them you’re 8 shots into a bottle


pygmybluewhale

That’s typically my go to “I’ve been drinking”


totaltimeontask

Over 40 hours is always 1.5x time. Certain shifts are 2x time, and some other less frequent shifts are 2.5x time.


pygmybluewhale

So aside from the obvious time and a half and I assume holidays. If you get called in do you get anything extra?


totaltimeontask

We don’t get called in. If I’m off the schedule you can fondle my limp dick.


pygmybluewhale

Well that sounds hard.


Alternative_Humor439

Any time over our minimum weekly is pay and a half. That helps a lot.


goldenpotatoes7

None, there is also no force back since it’s an IFT company


pygmybluewhale

911/IFT (private and considered rural). If we don’t there’s guilt trips and/ or a mandatory call in list. Meanwhile other services are paying an additional hourly and time and a half if you’re already in OT and some that are paying a flat rate to pick up OT.

Better equipment, and my station is less than a mile from the house. Basically I’m complacent.

I was just curious mainly because i’ve started seeing other companies that are hiring advertise incentives for call ins and wanted to know how normal this is elsewhere.

Holy shit.


RobertGA23

Double my hourly wage


-peramo

None. Incentives in general include extra $1 / hr for nightshift


NopeRope13

Night shift and weekend differential. If we work a truck on a game day, we get a shift stipend. Also just got 5% cost of living raises. Really can’t complain at all.


usernametaken0602

Basics $250-$500, medics $350-$750. Granted base pay is dookie On top of hourly pay


deenice57

Sometimes I'd get cold lunch dropped off to our rig.


Born_Sandwich176

Pizza. Are there any other incentives?


AnotherBlackTag

Instead of 1 crumb I get 2


pygmybluewhale

Sounds like you work for Oliver Twist’s orphanage.


CaptainWeener

Consider yourself, at home, consider yourself partofthe family lmao


pygmybluewhale

Oh Jesus yes, the hiring process too… “we’re like one big family” 🤢

This is what I’m looking for. Thank you.


sciguy0504

At one point in 2021 the company was offering 3x sporadically.


Salt_Percent

We get OT for any time worked beyond our regularly scheduled shift If we pick up an additional shift, it's considered all OT (even if it's in our 36hr week). We also get mileage and commuting time compensation both to and from station. Additionally, we get to pick which station from the available stations.


Play3rKn0wn

I work MWF 13s and I picked up today knowing I’d do like 3 calls and get paid to watch CFB, so far so good haha.


mapleleaf4evr

I don’t understand the question. Doesn’t everyone make time and a half or double time if they are on overtime?


pygmybluewhale

So one company in particular pays an additional $6/hr plus time and a half.


und3r-c0v3r

One time dispatch let us get a lunch.


BeardedHeathen1991

Incentive? I’ve heard of that. I know it’s a word. I know what it means in theory. But not in reality.
